In a quiet corner of Kericho town, the rhythmic sound of saws and hammers echoes through the air.

Among the workers is Agnes Musimbi, a 46-year-old carpenter whose story is as inspiring as the crafts she creates.   Agnes's journey began in 2007 when she moved to Kericho from Eldoret, leaving behind her childhood home after dropping out of school at Class three.

Life as a single mother of four was not easy.   To make ends meet, she started washing clothes for people, a job that demanded grit and resilience.

But Agnes had bigger dreams.
